20 Million Gallons of Stormwater Controlled Per Year and Counting!

RainWise has reached a major milestone in protecting our waterways from overflows of stormwater and sewage during heavy rains. The program now captures runoff from over 2 million square feet of impervious, rooftop surface –a roof equivalent in size to Volunteer Park!

This overall collection has been achieved piece by piece, in cooperation with over 1,500 private property owners in the Seattle area who have taken advantage of RainWise rebates to date. This represents roughly 45 acres of surface area control, and results in over 20 million gallons of rainwater runoff kept from the system annually.
